Vodafone Idea Introduces Rs 2249 Plan with Year-Long Validity
Vodafone Idea Limited (VIL) has silently rolled out a Rs 2249 prepaid plan, targeting users who prefer long-term service with minimal data needs. As India’s third-largest telecom operator, Vi continues to position itself as a budget-friendly choice amidst rising telecom tariffs.
- The plan is available across all telecom circles, with varying data benefits in select regions.
- It is especially appealing to users looking for affordability, voice calling, and light internet usage over a full year.
Key Benefits of the Rs 2249 Plan
The plan includes:
- Unlimited voice calling to any network
- 3600 SMS for the entire validity period
- 365 days of service validity
- 30GB of data in most telecom circles
- 40GB of data in Himachal Pradesh (and possibly other select circles)
This makes the plan ideal for users who primarily rely on calling and texting, and have occasional internet requirements.
Ultra-Low Daily Cost with Flexibility
At a daily cost of just Rs 6.16, the Rs 2249 plan offers one of the lowest per-day rates among yearly prepaid plans.
- It is a cost-effective alternative to high-data annual plans from other telcos.
- Once the allocated data is exhausted, users can continue using mobile internet at 50 paise/MB or simply add top-up data packs.
- SMS beyond the bundled limit is charged at Rs 1 for local and Rs 1.5 for STD SMS.
This structure gives users flexibility and control over their spending without compromising on essential services.
Strategic Timing Amid Price Hike Concerns
The launch comes at a time when telecom operators are expected to hike tariffs. Vodafone Idea’s Rs 2249 plan helps consumers lock in long-term value before potential price revisions.
- As Vi continues to invest in network quality, this plan can also ensure users enjoy stable connectivity throughout the year.
- The quiet launch suggests Vi is testing waters before a broader promotional push, targeting niche segments who prioritize validity over data volume.
